Mr. President, I rise in opposition to amendment No. 1441. I appreciate the concerns of my colleague from New Jersey; however, this amendment is not necessary. Secretary Rollins is conducting a thorough and timely review of the USDA contracts. Upon the final conclusion of those reviews, the Secretary has released the funds for various programs for USDA. It is the standard practice for new administrations to come in and review contracts and obligations made by prior administrations. I have full confidence in Secretary Rollins to continue down this path. I urge my colleagues to vote against this amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from New Jersey.
